118 :: Walking Among Trees



Jaana: Walking among birch trees...

Kia: It's leaf-peeping season! I've been enjoying walking in this woodland of deciduous trees.

109 :: Rowan



Jaana: Unlike last year, there's hardly been berries on rowan trees this fall. Instead their foliage is spectacularly colorful.

Kia: The Yellow-berried Rowan (Sorbus Joseph Rock) has its branches adorned with bountiful jewel-like berries. They are very attractive to fruit-eating birds, and this is reflected in the old name "bird catcher".

26 :: Deciduous Tree



Jaana: The national tree of Finland is the Birch, the Silver Birch, to be precise.

Kia: Oak, taken in Linlithgow (birthplace of Mary Queen of Scots), whose coat of arms shows a black greyhound chained to an oak tree.
